NBA Pros REACT To Zion Williamson Losing So Much Weight..

Welcome back to Latest Hoops. Here’s some news about Zion Williamson. For an athlete, their skills and health become two of the major factors in their life. Professional athletes always need to stay in their best shape. This often means they need to follow a specific fitness regime set up by expert trainers. While recent pictures of New Orleans Pelicans star Zion Williamson showed him all jacked up, his previous physical form created headlines for other reasons.

However, nothing seemed to work for Williamson, as in 2021, his weight had increased to 330 pounds. Williamson’s weight was reportedly even more than NBA legend Shaquille O’Neal.
